As a kid, I remember he would often soak raw almonds and leave them in the refrigerator to snack on....more

St Patty's day approaches and I have to admit, I know nothing about Irish food. In fact, I have only eaten Irish food once before, at a local restaurant, and it was God awful. While I am not suggesting this is typical of Irish food, it is my very limited experience with it....more

Thankfully, when I do cook I tend to make enough for an army so I found some goodies in there I had forgotten all about....more

I used to love Nutter Butters as a kid and I can honestly say that before yesterday I had not had one in many years! They are as good as I remember them!...more
